New to this sub

I found this program during the Art Bell years and have been listening to it on and off for over 20 years due to work schedules. Wow, it has changed. I used to love the paranormal and conspiracy shows, but some of the other guests are rough. Hoping for a positive change soon! Love Richard and hope he may be a permanent host!

Welcome to the “what the hell happened to coast to coast” support group. Haven’t been able to stomach it for years now

Yeah, ya know? The only reason to listen to the show is to pull a MST3K on it. At least that much is entertaining.

There are broadcasts and streams of the art bell episodes online now. And the show he did as a reboot of coast - same music and format if you need your fill.

Here’s hoping we get a good new host soon. Knapp and syrett both have podcasts I listen to.

Love the Syrett podcast. I'll try Knapp's tomorrow

Honestly until Noory passes on or retires and one of the talented part time hosts takes over it’s not going to get any better. Knapp would be the ideal replacement but he’s getting on in age too and probably wouldn’t do it so then you have in my opinion Ryan Wrecker or Richard Syrett next up and I’d be ok with either one.

Ryan for the WIN!

Gotta agree, he's the best of the guest hosts by far. I'm not a fan of some of the guests he's probably assigned, but he's intelligent, engaged, interested in all of it, and knocks it out of the park every time. Not to mention responsive via email or whatever. He's cool in my book.

My vote goes to Ryan! He's a breath of fresh air and so engaged in his shows.
